Страница 275 - ... Parliament is not a congress of ambassadors from different and hostile interests ; which interests each must maintain, as an agent and advocate, against other agents and advocates ; but parliament is a deliberative assembly of one nation, with one interest, that of the whole ; where, not local purposes, not local prejudices ought to guide, but the general good, resulting from the general reason of the whole.

Страница 301 - It implied' an inconceivable severity of conviction that he had one thing to do, and that he who would do some great thing in this short life, must apply himself to the work with such a concentration of his forces, as, to idle spectators who live only to amuse themselves, looks like insanity.
Страница 322 - Arve and Arveiron at thy base Rave ceaselessly ; but thou, most awful Form ! Risest from forth thy silent sea of pines, How silently !

But when I look again, It is thine own calm home, thy crystal shrine, Thy habitation from eternity...
Страница 71 - On, on, you noblest English, Whose blood is fet from fathers of war-proof, Fathers that like so many Alexanders, Have in these parts from morn till even fought, And sheathed their swords for lack of argument! Be copy now to men of grosser blood, And teach them how to war!
Страница 372 - Advance, then, ye future generations! We would hail you, as you rise in your long succession, to fill the places which we now fill, and to taste the blessings of existence, where we are passing, and soon shall have passed, our own human duration. We bid you welcome to this pleasant land of the fathers.
